Bureaucrats can't find their way to and out of the rest room. A congenital thing.

Once space becomes economical (and I don't think it will be tourism)...it will explode.

Energy would be a high priority. Solar, converted into microwaves...directed at power plants (very carefully).

NASA, like any government entity, isn't allowed to operate for profit, so paying customers aren't allowed. Virgin Galactic has a long way to go. They haven't even achieved orbital space flight yet , something NASA (or NACA actually) did on Feb 1, 1958, 48 years ago.
